Description
Annuloplasty device and method Technical Field The invention belongs to the technical field of medical appliances, and particularly relates to an annular repair appliance and a repair method. Background Clinical problem Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) is a complex disease that results in debilitation and death. After the initial injury typically includes ischemic, hypertensive or idiopathic factors, the heart suffers from muscle damage and transfers the load to the remaining healthy muscles. To compensate for this, the heart undergoes geometric remodeling, thereby increasing load and stress, causing further damage, forming a vicious circle. Mitral regurgitation associated with CHF is known as Functional Mitral Regurgitation (FMR), and is primarily caused by dilation of the mitral annulus along the small-septum lateral axis. When the ring expands, the leaflets fail to re-coapt and blood leaks or flows back into the atrium during systole. The heart compensates for regurgitation by working harder to maintain cardiac output. If left untreated, this will result in the heart being further stressed, muscle damage, and acceleration of congestive heart failure. Current practice generally involves direct annuloplasty and direct annuloplasty. Direct annulus repair is the use of an annulus repair device to secure the annular band to the mitral valve orifice by anchoring it to the myofiberboard layer over the annulus. The area of the flap opening is reduced by tightening the string inside the annular band. Or the corresponding points are respectively anchored at the front outer junction and the rear inner junction to be tightened to reduce the closing area of the flap opening. Typical instruments for direct annulus repair typically tighten the rope embedded in the tube after anchoring the polyurethane tube to the myofiberboard layer with anchors. However, the locking force of the later rope is easy to release and displace under the long-term vibration of the heart, so that the area of the ring opening is increased again. And the tail end of the tightening wire is cut off through a catheter with a wire cutting function after the rope is tightened, the tightening mode generates uneven circumferential stress on the mitral valve annulus, and the tail wire is broken and is easy to be infected due to exposure in a human body. Indirect annuloplasty is to reduce the annulus opening area by implanting a corresponding stent body within the great cardiac vein, expanding the great cardiac vein inside diameter, or by tensioning the rope at two anchor points near the fossa ovalis and the posterior leaflet (within the great cardiac vein, within the left atrial wall), respectively. However, the indirect annulus repair approach is not controllable for complications arising from the choice of anchor points for the anterior leaflet. For example, anchoring in great cardiac veins is preferred to create venous thrombosis, and the surgical procedure is irreversible. Disclosure of Invention The invention aims at solving the technical problem that the area of a ring opening is enlarged again due to easy loosening displacement generated by a rope tightening mode in the existing annular repair, in particular to the direct annular repair, and aims to provide an annular repair instrument and an annular repair method.
